It’s not Sullivan either.
It’s Cyan.
She’s not in my head, she’s in his.
I take my attention back to Uzi, that evil laugh filling the room until it echoes. “You did it!” he yells. But who he’s yelling to, I’m not sure.
Not me.
Not Thomas.
And not even Cyan.
He’s talking to Lincoln Wade. Who aims his cannon arm at Uzi now. But Uzi pushes him back with another mind blast. Lincoln smashes into a wall and sinks down, momentarily stunned.
The little robots are all over Uzi, but he ignores them as he walks up to Lincoln. “That’s all I wanted, Bike Boy. How do you kill someone who can’t be killed?” Uzi laughs as he grabs Lincoln’s collar and pulls him up to his feet. “You get an Alpha.” Suddenly every squirming robot on Uzi’s body goes still. Then they drop off, like someone… turned them off.
Good God. He was the one who stopped the train back in the tunnel! He can control mechanical things with his mind.
“We need you, Linc,” Uzi says, right into Lincoln’s face. “So Cyan could die and slip right into Thomas’s mind to take over. If you think two mentalists linked together are powerful, just wait till you see what we can do with three.”
He throws Lincoln down on the floor with the most powerful mind blast I’ve ever seen. It makes a crater in the floor so deep Lincoln’s body disappears into a dark hole.
And then Uzi looks right at me.
